first of all: sorry for crossposting this as I don't know which of these 4 lists is the most appropriate for this question (specially the 2 gnome-accessibility lists). (note: please also reply in private, thanx)
I have been doing some research if it is at all possible to get gnome (or gpe for that matter as a pocket alternative) working on an embedded system (pda). For GPE that's not much of a problem. Only extra issue I need to address and on which I need some help is, how to get it accessible. As I understand, gnopernicus development has nearly stopped and orca as well as lsr are respective nextgen replacements for it. I could be wrong in this, please correct me and please do not take offense to this query. I also understand that speechsynthesis is too cpu-heavy for embedded systems (pda's). Specificly, I have 3 pda's lying around here which would be really intersting to get them accessible with a graphical interface. Console would be less of a problem with a good braille display. However, most good PIM toosl and other software for pda's (even under linux) are graphical in nature. pda's: - sharp zaurus sl-c860 and sl-c3200 - toshiba e740 with external keyboard Any and all information, pointers and notes to help me out would be really welcome. I'm not that good in hardware programmign and such (as I'm more of a network/security person). Let's hope we can get this working, would be good to serve as an alternative for windblozeCE pda's and possibly lateron also for support on linux-embedded mobile phones or internet tablets. kind regards, -- Andor Demarteau E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] student computer science www: http://www.nl.linux.org/~andor UU based & VU guest-student jabber,icq,msn,voip: do ask ;) ----------- chairman Stichting Studiereizen Storm 2002-2004 vice-chairman USF Studentenbelangen executive committee 2002-2003 _______________________________________________ Gnome-accessibility-devel mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-accessibility-devel
